Would you still be fighting for noble deeds
If you were still alive today?
Be leading a rally for someone’s rights in some unknown land
Or leading Sean in an unbelievable band?
Somehow I know you’d be protesting something here or there,
Possibly the Noble Peace prize winner dissident in China locked away.
Or maybe some radioactive decay.
You’d still be championing to ensure people secured their rights everyday.
What would you say about all the disarray still in this world today?
Always the optimist, I’m sure you’d say we were fine.
For sure you’d be preaching that as long as we have peace and love,
You would imagine that it’s worth the wait to just get to the finish line.
I, for one, still miss you Johnny…
